Face Masks for Dry, Dehydrated Skin Skin Concern: Environmental elements, genes and age can all take a toll on your skin's moisture barrier. This layer locks in moisture and shields against environmental pollutants. A compromised barrier can leave skin dry, itchy and irritable.
Mask Formula: Dakar recommends bringing parched skin back to life with a hydrating mask: "Look for something that will give nourishment and has anti-aging benefits to help plump the skin. Masks rich in antioxidants as well as nourishing oils are perfect," she says.
How to Apply: Before applying any mask, Dakar recommends gently exfoliating the face so the mask's ingredients can better penetrate the skin."For dry skin, apply a soft, hydrating mask to any dry areas on your face -- I like to particularly concentrate on the cheeks, jowls, neck and decolletage."
Try: Skin Inc. Prep & Seal Set, $30, a duo that contains arbutin, a brightening and exfoliating ingredient, while the hydrating mask contains hyaluronic acid for moisture.
Nerd Skincare Super Hydrating Mask, $20: This single-use sheet mask restores the skin's moisture barrier and helps improve elasticity and firmness.
